Known for his unorthodox flow, evidenced on tracks like “Money” and “Destiny”, singer-songwriter Mohammed Ismail Sherif—aka Black Sherif—keeps his ear and his lyrics close to the ground. For Trotro Vibes, Apple Music’s celebration of Ghanaian Independence Day, he earmarks some of his favourite tracks on an exclusive playlist featuring selections from some of his biggest collaborators, including Burna Boy as well as Smallgod, VIC MENSA and Ivorian Doll, alongside hits from Yaw Tog, Gyakie, R2Bees and more. “Africa is beautifully inspiring, dynamic, energetic and captivating,” he tells Apple Music. “These are some of the sounds I am currently vibing to, mixed with records that also inspire me.” Hear something that inspires you?
